It drizzled off and on. The paths were sometimes a bit slippery. But,
Provence has had an extreme drought, so they need the rain. It was still beautiful.

The day began with a walk up the steep streets of Bonnieux,
a sleepy Provençal town little visited by tourists.
Near the top, Bonnieux offered a nice view into the lower town and across the valley.
The day's hiking included walks on small paved and dirt roads, narrow woodland paths like this,
and rocky climbs on Roman ways.
At the end of the hike, we had some striking vistas showing the rock vertical face of the Luberon.
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI find myself wondering if climbing that vertical face is allowed.
ReplyDeleteI love the look of that little town, Jack! Such fabulous views!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great walk as long as you could stay reasonably dry.
ReplyDeleteAn interesting vista around every corner in those little hill villages.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a gorgeous hike. Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a very picturesque route. Little village, beautiful vistas, some natural features. The best of everything by all appearances.
ReplyDeleteI am a bit jealous of you now. You have been visiting many interesting places on this trip.
